From the Paper:

"Catwoman, directed by the French Director Pitof, makes a climbs-down with the audience to the point of starting when Joel Schumacher puts rubber nipples on the bat suit and treated his fetish for neon-lit sets. Catwoman is Batman and Robin once again excitedly crapping over all the well-treasured achievement of 'serious' comic book movies and approaching with full vigor. Taking into account the marketing aspect, it is an easy thing to put the blame on the actress on Halle Berry due to the awesome debacle of a film. This is due to the fact that she is the one who is running around the 'nameless computer-generated city" draped in an ill fitting leather attire and doing the role of embarrassing scenes in whish she gulps down 6 cans of Tuna fish or at times she is crazy for a catnip. To discharge this role, Berry was paid millions. The audience rightly was not prepared to accept this rubbish. The true wedgie in the crotch of Catwomen is director Pitof, who had experience with special effects and Hollywood hack, who has a difficult time in feeling confident with the obsolete filmmaking devices such as "acting, "drama", & self-control for a long period to really make a movie out of this Bob Kane created character.
